Author Bio

Alison Rosen Editor-in-Chief & Founder, edenisle.net

Hello and welcome! I’m Alison Rosen, the passionate voice, curator, and primary author behind edenisle.net.

With more than 15 years of journalism experience in the United States, I had the privilege of working with some of the country’s most respected news organizations, including The New York Times, CNN, and The Washington Post. During my career, I covered breaking national stories, political developments, culture, lifestyle, and emerging trends. Those years sharpened my commitment to authentic, well-researched storytelling and taught me how to distill complex ideas into clear, meaningful narratives that resonate with readers.

Over time, my assignments took me to some of the world’s most breathtaking destinations, particularly private islands and tropical retreats. I witnessed firsthand the transformative power of seclusion, natural beauty, and intentional luxury. These experiences shifted my perspective entirely. I realized that the stories I most wanted to tell were not just about what was happening in the world, but about how we can step away from it to recharge, reconnect, and live more elevated lives.

That’s why, in late 2025, I founded Eden Isle, an independent blogging and news portal dedicated to celebrating island-inspired luxury, wellness retreats, sustainable escapes, and aspirational living. Based in Cary, North Carolina, I blend my journalistic rigor and investigative expertise with a deep personal passion for paradise destinations, eco-conscious indulgence, and the art of mindful travel. Our guiding philosophy is simple: “Island Dreams. Elevated Living.”

Today, as a full-time blogger, writer, and editor, I bring that same depth and credibility to every piece on edenisle.net. My goal is to inspire you with trustworthy, beautifully crafted content that helps you discover (or dream about) your next private island getaway, rejuvenating spa retreat, sustainable waterfront home, or any aspect of elevated, nature-connected living.

Whether you’re planning a once-in-a-lifetime escape, considering island real estate investment, seeking transformative wellness experiences, or simply following trends in luxury, tech, sports, or wealth, I’m here to guide you with the same care and precision I honed at major news outlets.

I’d love to hear from you about your favorite hidden paradises, wellness experiences, or questions about island living. Feel free to reach out anytime.

Thank you for joining me on this journey. Let’s keep dreaming of and discovering paradise together.
